Shipping Lamps from Ningbo to Callao via Ocean Freight

When moving mixed loads of construction goods such as Lighting, Tools, and bulk fasteners, clearly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Place heavy, dense construction goods at the bottom, with lighter cartons of light fixtures on top, and add corner boards, top sheets, and stretch wrap to stabilize the load. Prominently label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers Can handle them appropriately.

For lamps and light fittings, Use Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses do not contact each other. Our team recommends Wrapping each fixture in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then positioning them in snug compartments. Clearly mark cartons as “Fragile – Lighting” and avoid stacking them under heavy hardware on the same pallet.

Select enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and try to avoid long outdoor dwell times at terminals. For export, look at container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value hand tools and branded fasteners Often justify All-risk cargo insurance, especially when combined with fragile light fixtures. Our specialists recommend Insuring shipments at full replacement value and maintaining serial numbers or SKU lists for premium hand tools. This documentation improves claim outcomes if cartons are lost, pilfered, or water-damaged.
